How the course works

The course is delivered primarily via e-mail. This is the fastest
and most efficient way. However, course materials and feedback can
be sent to course members via snail mail at an extra fee.

This is the usual process:

You submit the online application form. This is reviewed and
within 24-48 working hours we contact you and let you know if
your application is successful.

If your application is successful you are offered a
place on the course and then we send you the payment details.
Once the course fees have been satisfied you have officially
joined the course.

You are assigned a distance learning tutor who will be your
guide and give you feedback during the course. Your tutor will
be there for you whenever you have questions or need help with
your work.

We e-mail you a welcome pack consisting of instructions for
getting started and downloading course units.

You are ready to start! Just go through the materials and
e-mail your tutor your work when you are ready.

Your tutor e-mails you back with comments, suggestions and a
unit grade. This is repeated for every unit in the course.

Once you have successfully completed all course units an
evaluation panel will award you an overall course grade.

After completing the course you have the option of taking
the internationally-recognized Cambridge ESOL Teaching Knowledge
Test (TKT). This course incorporates full preparation for this
exam in the course fees. Exams can be taken at any of the
examination centres that Cambridge ESOL has worldwide.

Course Aims

The overall aim of the course is to provide a thorough introduction to the Methodology and Practice of TESOL-TEFL. By the end of the course successful candidates should show an understanding of effective teaching methods and techniques and the ability to design appropriate and effective lesson activities and plans. Overall, this course should enable candidates to reconcile key theoretical aspects and principles of teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages with the realities of everyday classroom practice.

The general objectives of the course are for candidates to:

1- Demonstrate a general understanding of, and familiarity with, the world of teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages
(TESOL) including general terminology, the profession's qualifications, further training options and career opportunities.

2- Demonstrate a good grasp and a basic understanding of the Communicative Approach to Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.

Course Contents

This course consists of ten separate units (twelve
if you enroll on the Endorsed TEFL Certificate) that explore the theoretical and methodological aspects of teaching English as a foreign or second language,
plus an end-of-course teacher observation project. You will develop the skills of teaching by working your way through a number of practical tasks. As part of your training you will be asked to reflect on how you would apply these theories and methods in an actual classroom setting. A regular assignment is to give you real life situations and require you to plan unique lessons for a specific group of learners at varying levels of skill and understanding.

The Certificate is offered in two versions:

A- The Certificate in TEFL (150 hrs)

B - The Certificate in TEFL with an
Endorsement in Teaching English for Business and English to Young Learners (190 hrs)

The Endorsed Certificate can be particularly useful to those candidates who aspire to work in organisations that run young learners courses and/or provide in-company training.

Course Length

The Online TEFL-TESOL Certificate is estimated at 150 hours. To
this you need to add an extra 40 hours' work if you are taking the
ENDORSED version of the course.

The length of time required to complete the course varies from
person to person. If you dedicate yourself to the course fully, for
example an average of 3 hours a day, you can finish in less than
four weeks. Most people, however, due to other life and professional
commitments can only work on the course four or five hours a week
and take between eight and twelve weeks to finish.

Course Dates and Fees
